Operations Management in the Supply Chain: Decisions and Cases

by Roger G. Schroeder, M. Johnny Rungtusanatham, Susan Meyer Goldstein

"Operations Management in the Supply Chain: Decisions and Cases" is an ideal book for the instructor seeking a short text with cases. This book employs a cross-functional perspective that emphasizes strategy and critical thinking, appealing to non-majors and practical for use in an MBA level or undergraduate course in operations management. The size and focus of the book also make the text attractive for the cross-functional curriculum where students are required to purchase more than one text. The sixteen cases offer variety in length and rigor; and several are from Ivey, Stanford, and Darden. This mix makes the book appropriate for both undergraduates and MBA students.

[Mark Oppenlander · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is a good book on the basic principles of modern business operations and supply chain management. The chapters are of a good length (not too long, not too short) making them easy to digest. The text is readable and cogent and the case studies are current and relevant. Recommended.
